Has the configurable option "Failure Detection Time" in VMware HA has been removed in vSphere 5?

The correct answer is B. Yes. It is no longer needed due to additional storage checks in the VMware HA isolation response process. vSphere 5 will use datastore heartbeats in a disaster. Thus, this setting is no longer available or supported in VMware vSphere 5. Chapter 4, The Importance of vMotion, VMware HA, and Fault Tolerance
